EISHERmEN,s luck.

But Few Bluehsh Caught Yesterday.
The fishing yesterday was very poor. The
little bluefsh would not take hold and bite
as they have been doing. The steamer Mes
senger took several loads of people to Stiles
Park, Lighthouse Point. Many were pro-
vided with fishing poles and it was their
sincere intention to make the little blues
suffer. The fishermen lined the dock at
the park and lonely and forlorn was the luck
which o'erspread their faces. Occasionally
one would pull in little fish three or four
inches long, and Immediately everybody
would cast their lines in close proximity to
where it was caught. Many came to the
Point in carriages. The fishing was no bet
ter in other places and everybody was finally
obliged to give it up for yesterday as bad
job. On Wednesday bluefish were caught
nearly as fast as one could cast his line into
water, but the storm of Thursday had bad
effect on fishing YESTERDAY,

boil. We poulticed it, but all to purpose. About
five months after it became running sore. Soon
each hand and as his blood became more and more
impure it took less time for them to break out A
sore came the chin, beneath the under lip, which
was very offensive. His head was solid scab,
discharging great deal. This was his condition at
twenty two months old when undertook the
more than year old of consumption (scrofula of
course). He could walk little, but could not get
up if he fell down and could not when in bed,
having of his hands. I Immediately COM
menced with the Cuticura Remedies, using the
Cuticura and Cuticura Soap freely, and when he had
taken one bottle Of the Cuticura Resovent his head
was completely cured and he was improved in every
way. We were very much encouraged and con-
tinued the use Of the Remedies for year and
half. One sore after another healed, bonY matter
forming in each one of these five deep just be-
fore healing, which would finally grow loose and
of these ugly bone formations l preserved. After
taking dozen and half bottles he was complete
ly cured, and is now, at the age of six years,
strong and healthy child The scars his hands
must always remain; his hands are strong, though
we once feared he would never be able to use them
All that physicians did for him did him good All
who saw the child before using the Cuticura RENE

NEW YORK WOOL MARKET.
The sales Of foreign wool in this mar,
ket during the arst week of the present
month have been the largest recorded in
twenty years, and yet there is a general
cry that trade is dull, stsgnent and de-
pressed. Now, how are we 10 reconcile,
to adjust, to nicely weigh this ABSURD in
consistency? II is very doubtful, il we
attempted to do so, we would receive no
reward, but curses, for our trouble, and
as we are utterly opposed to payments
OF this sort we had better leave the trade
where IL chooses to remain-in the quag-
mires of incongrUities.
In the history of wool and its manu-
facture the claim made that it would be
hard to find among mankind more in
telligent body of men in the world, in any
branch Of tTEde, than those VINO are now
conducting the wool trade of New York,
Boston, Hartford, Providence, Pniladel-
phia, Troy, Chicago, ST. Louis and San
Francisco, yet there is no branch of trade
in the whole world managed or conduct
ed on such loose ropa-on such false
business principles. Why half OF the young
boys do net seem to know what stop"
is from "weste," and as likely as not
anybody who leads them into knowl-
edge of the same is pronounced as a
crank, as q lUnatiC. The wool trade OF

nomic and erudite principles until they
have 8 bond of unity on sound economic
laws consistent with the integrity, solid
ity and go ahead of the nation on the
principle of the "greatest good to the
greatest number"
To-day no man in the wool trade knows
anything at all ABOUT it's management.
Wool is bought and sold under misrepre-
sentation, and the same sorts and classes
are sold at various prices to the detri-
ment of the weak and the benefit of the
